Course Highlights
Zellwood's distinctive layout featuring hills and craters delivers a consistently challenging and beautiful central Florida experience at outstanding value. Exceptionally kind staff, highlighted by welcoming starters, keep golfers returning alongside well-maintained greens with reliable speed.

About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6473 yards
Slope 123
Rating 70.7

A 238-yard par 3, a 259-yard par 4, a treacherous hole called the "Train Wreck" and a five-hole stretch around a cavernous dry lake dubbed "Crater Junction" all help make the semi-private Zellwood Station Golf Club unique. Featuring hilly terrain not often seen at Florida golf courses, the George Maddox design, which opened in 1974, is a challenge. Located about 30 minutes from Orlando, Zellwood Station G.C. is known to be in good shape, especially the greens.

Fun course

Greens are good, rest of the course is average. But it’s an inexpensive round, and the layout is great.

Great value @ $45 or under!

We've played here many times overer the years and right now this is he best this course has played. The tee blocks, fairways and greens are muvh improved, The cart paths are good, the food & drink are fine and the layout is quite good for most levels of players. We'll play here every year.

Disappointed

After booking a tee time using an app, I was told upon arrival that I had to be back in 30 minutes. Of course , one would question why a tee time would be available if it only allowed someone 30 minutes to play a round of golf! I was then questioned by the clerk about my thinking in selecting a late tee time. I chose the tee time because I’m on vacation, and the tee time was available. Sorry to be such a burden to your establishment.

Tees, fairways, greens all in good condition. Good layout, elevation changes. Staff friendly. If you hit outside of fairway, expect dirt or weeds.

Course is in good shape but pace of play absolutely terrible. Waiting several minutes on every tee box people not ready to hit sitting in their carts.

Fun layout and very good conditions! Good value.

We play here every winter and this was the best I've seen the course in several years! The fairways, tee boxes and greens were very good; the rough and sand traps were averge. Will play a couple more times when back in January.

Rough shape, can be better

Lots of washed out areas, sand is all over the place. Greens are ok but barely, they are trying to improve. Still a good layout and fun shots to play. Get it at discount, if you can.

Course condition

Fairways wide open and in good shape. Greens are super fast , grass in poor condition they have just been seeded. We were attempting to putt on 3 holes when the sprinklers came on, very poor timing. Are the sprinklers on a timer? If they are some body should be on course to turn off when players are on the greens.

Course was in good condition if you are used to unlevel t boxes and greens that need some tlc. Overall for $25 for 9 holes is well worth it.
